Directions:

  1. Combine 1 cup of strawberries and 1 tablespoon agave nectar in a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer mixture to a glass bowl, stir in chia seeds until completely combined, and set aside for at least 15 minutes to let it form a gel.

  3. Spread Greek yogurt on the inside of 2 glass containers for serving to create a streaky effect. Add ¼ cup of the strawberry chia mixture into the bottom of each jar. Pour cottage cheese mixture over the strawberry chia mixture until the jars are almost full. 
  4. Finish each jar with a few drops of strawberry chia mixture and gently swirl with spoon.
  5. Transfer jars to the refrigerator and allow them to chill for 2-4 hours or overnight to set. 
  6. Enjoy cold straight from the fridge.
